I'm sorry, but I see no need to insult section hikers.  Please be a bit 
more respectful as we all use and love the trail.  Just because not all 
of us can just take off for six months to go hiking is no reason to 
insult a whole demographic.  There are many beer swilling thru-hikers 
also and many a fire has been started by thru-hikers.  This is not meant 
to attack thru-hikers, just to set the record straight.  I hope you did 
not intend to insult and create divisions.
